Artists use lino cutters to carefully carve designs into linoleum or similar soft blocks. Blades are selected based on the type of cut required—fine lines, deep cuts, or wide areas. Once the design is carved, ink is applied to the block, which is then pressed onto paper or fabric to transfer the image. Lino cutter sets provide all the essential tools needed for multiple projects, allowing for safe and precise cutting with minimal strain.
